as it involves a federal question; under 28 U.S.C. 1338(a), as it involves federal patent,

WIRELESS ENVIRONMENT AND ITS DESIGN PATENT


15.

Wireless Environment is the assignee and current owner of a design patent,

D729,956S (the Design Patent), of which the Wireless Environment Spotlight is an


embodiment.
16.

The Design Patent, entitled Spotlight, was issued May 19, 2015, and covers an

inventive, novel, and ornamental product design for a spotlight.


17.

A true and accurate copy of the Design Patent is attached hereto as Exhibit A, of

which Defendants have received actual notice.


DEFENDANTS INFRINGING SPOTLIGHT
18.

Defendants are competitors of Wireless Environment.

19.

Specifically, Defendants are marketing, advertising, making, using, importing,

selling and offering for sale, an LED spotlight, the LED Spotlight with PIR Motion Detection
and Photocell (the Taotronics Spotlight), which is substantially similar and virtually identical

-411856904.1

Case: 1:15-cv-01215 Doc #: 1 Filed: 06/16/15 5 of 18. PageID #: 5

to, and infringes the inventive, ornamental, and novel design covered by the Design Patent, as
illustrated below:

20.

Defendants are marketing, advertising, making, using, importing, selling, and

offering for sale the infringing Taotronics Spotlight throughout the United States, and in other
jurisdictions worldwide over the internet.

-511856904.1

Case: 1:15-cv-01215 Doc #: 1 Filed: 06/16/15 6 of 18. PageID #: 6

21.

In the eye of an ordinary observer, giving such attention as a purchaser usually

gives, the patented design of the Design Patent and the design of the Taotronics Spotlight are
substantially the same and virtually identical, so as to deceive and induce the observer into
purchasing the Taotronics Spotlight, under the mistaken belief that it is the Wireless
Environment Spotlight.
22.

Viewed as a whole, consumers are confusing the product design of the Taotronics

Spotlight and the product design of the Wireless Environment Spotlight, both of which are
illustrated below:

Wireless
Environment
Spotlight
23.

Taotronics
Spotlight

The non-functional product design of the Wireless Environment Spotlight

obtained secondary meaning and consumers associate its unique, distinctive product design with
Wireless Environment.
24.

Among other reasons why the Wireless Environment Spotlights design obtained

secondary meaning, Wireless Environment has invested significant marketing and advertising
resources in connection with that product, which is featured on numerous websites, in catalogs
that are in circulation in over 70 million homes, and on Shop HQ, which has a viewership in
excess of 15 million households.
-611856904.1

Case: 1:15-cv-01215 Doc #: 1 Filed: 06/16/15 7 of 18. PageID #: 7

25.

Among other reasons the design of the Wireless Environment Spotlight obtained

secondary meaning, Wireless Environment has enjoyed significant sales of that product
throughout the United States, as well as in Europe and in Asia.
26.

Wireless Environment began selling the Wireless Environment Spotlight well

prior to Defendants sale of the Taotronics Spotlight, and, as a result, has priority over the
design.
27.

The substantial similarities between the design of the Taotronics Spotlight and the

design of the Wireless Environment Spotlight are causing consumers to confuse, mistake, or to
be deceived about an affiliation, connection, or association between Defendants and Wireless
Environment and their respective products.
28.

The substantial similarities between the design of the Taotronics Spotlight and the

design of the Wireless Environment Spotlight are causing consumers to be deceived as to the
origin of the Wireless Environment Spotlight, as well as Wireless Environments sponsorship, or
approval of the Taotronics Spotlight.
29.

Defendants infringement of the design of the Wireless Environment Spotlight is

willful and deceptive, as the Taotronics Spotlight is intended to copy Wireless Environments
product design, causing irreparable harm to Wireless Environment and further demonstrating
acquired distinctiveness in Wireless Environments product design.
DEFENDANTS INFRINGING NIGHTLIGHT
30.

The non-functional product design of the Wireless Environment Nightlight also

obtained secondary meaning and consumers also associate its unique, distinctive design with
Wireless Environment.

Case: 1:15-cv-01215 Doc #: 1 Filed: 06/16/15 8 of 18. PageID #: 8

31.

Among other reasons why the Wireless Environment Nightlights design obtained

secondary meaning, Wireless Environment has invested significant marketing and advertising
resources in connection with that product, which is featured on numerous websites, in catalogs
that are in circulation in over 70 million homes, and on Shop HQ, which has a viewership in
excess of 15 million households.
32.

Among other reasons the design of the Wireless Environment Nightlight obtained

secondary meaning, Wireless Environment has enjoyed significant sales of that product
throughout the United States, as well as in Europe and in Asia.
33.

Defendants are currently marketing, advertising, and selling the TT-NL001

Battery-Powered Motion Sensor LED Nightlight - Portable Wide-angled Illumination Night


Lamp nightlight (the Taotronics Nightlight)(the Taotronics Spotlight and the Taotronics
Nightlight collectively, the Infringing Products).
34.

The Taotronics Nightlight is virtually identical in design to the unique,

distinctive design of the Wireless Environment Nightlight:

Wireless
Environment
Nightlight
35.

Taotronics

Wireless Environment began selling the Wireless Environment Nightlight at least

as early as 2009, years prior to Defendants sale of the Taotronics Nightlight, and, as a result, has
priority over the design.

Case: 1:15-cv-01215 Doc #: 1 Filed: 06/16/15 9 of 18. PageID #: 9

36.

The substantial similarities between the design of the Taotronics Nightlight and

the design of the Wireless Environment Nightlight are causing consumers to confuse, mistake, or
to be deceived about an affiliation, connection, or association between Defendants and Wireless
Environment and their respective products.
37.

The substantial similarities between the design of the Taotronics Nightlight and

the design of the Wireless Environment Nightlight are causing consumers to confuse, mistake, or
to be deceived as to the origin of the Wireless Environment Nightlight, as well as Wireless
Environments sponsorship, or approval of the Taotronics Nightlight.
38.

Defendants infringement of the Wireless Environment Nightlight is willful and

deceptive as the Taotronics Nightlight is intended to copy Wireless Environments product


design, causing irreparable harm to Wireless Environment and further demonstrating acquired
distinctiveness in Wireless Environments product design.
39.

As a result of Defendants sale of the Taotronics Nightlight, Wireless

Environment is suffering the loss of goodwill with consumers in its product design, lost sales,
price erosion of the Wireless Environment products, among other types of harm.

precedence, and box 1 or 2 should be marked.
